Application ID:

8-2614-00311/00016

Permit(s) Applied for:

Article 19 Air Title V Facility

Project is Located:

Rochester, Monroe County

Project Description:

The Department has received an application from Buckeye Terminals LLC, has prepared a draft permit, and has made a tentative determination to issue a renewal of the Title V Facility Permit for the Rochester South Terminal, a gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil loading facility. The Rochester South Terminal is subject to 6 NYCRR Part 201-6, Title V Facility Permits, for major stationary sources due to potential emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in excess of 50 tons per year.

The facility includes a 4 bay truck loading rack with a vapor recovery unit to control loading emissions, a vapor combustion unit as a backup control method, six large fixed roof gasoline storage tanks with internal floating roofs, five tanks for additives and one tank for diesel fuel. The Title V Permit was originally issued in 1999, was renewed in 2004, and was modified in 2008 to authorize 6 additional ethanol tanks for blending to allow compliance with federal regulations for ethanol in gasoline.

Buckeye proposes to maintain existing Permit Conditions to restrict the facility potential to emit Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP) to below 10 tons per year of any individual HAP, and 25 tons per year of all HAP compounds combined, the thresholds specified in 40 CFR 63 Subpart R Maximum Achievable Control Technology for Gasoline Distribution Facilities. These Conditions limit facility throughput to 230,000,000 gallons of gasoline and 170,000,000 gallons of distillates annually, and are unchanged from the initial Title V Permit.

In accordance with 6NYCRR Parts 621.7(b)(9) and 201-6.4(c), the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has the authority to bar issuance of any Title V Facility Permit if it is determined not to be in compliance with applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act or 6NYCRR Part 201.
